Swift Transportation Reviews 20

Swift follows a strategy to hire fresh trainees and profit from them. They hired me straight out of college and kept me for almost 2 years. They let me completely leave the industry. I never get pulled over. No accident, no ticket (Thank God); however, they want you to be frustrated (I would say, on purpose). My honest feedback is that no one cares about you. The office people use “we” and “they” to differentiate themselves from drivers. They are emotionally poor( is there any better word?), they do have their own favorite drivers( if you don't belong, better to go, their payment is inconsistent, they are racist( Jonestown, PA terminal is ridiculous)). If you have any chance, please don't step to their get. Run away!

Swift Logistics is totally a fraudulent company. They wanted to charge me $111.00 to insure a $300 item. Stupid dealing with them. I lost $300 from the seller due to the logistics company having the items and holding it ransom.

BUSINESS FRAUD!!! THIS COMPANY SENT ME A CONTRACT FOR $150 TO SHIP MY CAR- I SIGNED IT. THEY CHARGED ME A DEPOSIT. THEN THEYRE REFUSING TO DELIVER MY CAR UNLESS I PAY THEM ANOTHER $500!!! AND THEY SAID TO CANCEL & HAVE ANOTHER COMPANY DELIVER MY CAR THEY ARE CHARGING A $200 CANCELATION FEE WHICH IS MORE THAN MY SIGNED CONTACT. THIS IS A COMPLETE SCAM & FRAUD!!!! THEY ARE HOLDING ME HOSTAGE TRYING TO FORCE ME TO PAY A HIGHER FALSIFIED AMOUNT THAN WHAT MY SIGNED CONTRACT SAYS. CALLING THE POLICE & BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU TO REPORT THEM.

Got hired with the veteran exemption for the training. Understand that you must complete 1 year to be free of the payment obligation. Also you are supposed to be hire with a .55 cpm. I had to leave the company to address serious medical issues that appeared after 4 months on my own. The company said they understood adding that I would be able to return once my treatments were completed. Two days later Swift collections called advising that I had a $9000 debt to pay to them and payments begin in a few weeks. This debt will not decrease with tenure. You will not get the .55cpm and your most likely salary will be between $700 and $900 a week. If you have dependents for the insurance expect to pay nearly $1000 a month, and this will be deducted weekly.

Order a package form aboard never received, Paid a lot in stamp duties and they said I’ll get a free refund, This was back in 2024, never got a refund I gave up trying, Had a email this week, February 2025 saying I could get a refund but still have to pay a fee , sick of these now , company name is ( swift trans delivery) stay clear of these scammers

I purchased a 12-foot ladder from Home Depot. Swift Transportation was the delivery company. Yes, I had to pay for the shipping. They delivered my ladder this morning. One side of the ladder was destroyed...bent metal support, broken rivets, and the aluminum steps bent. The delivery driver concealed the damage by laying the ladder on the ground with the damaged side down. Then he drove off instead of returning the ladder to Home Depot and letting them know that a replacement would be necessary. I got an email within a minute of the delivery and found the damaged ladder outside. I immediately called Home Depot, who in turn called Swift. Within 5 minutes of the delivery, they had Swift on the phone and asked them to pick up the ladder since they were only 5 minutes away. The delivery driver refused to come back to pick up the damaged item. This is a company with poor ethics...and I'm imagining that this is what they trained their employees to do. Otherwise, they would be taking responsibility for the shipping damages.

Failure #1: damaging the item
Failure #2: delivering the damaged item and concealing the damage
Failure #3: refusing to come and pick the item up while they are still in the neighborhood.

Stay away from this company

i was so excited to work for them a couple of years ago. i was told i would regret it but i still held a belief that it would be great. well, it was exactly what everyone told me it would be. they took me in and dropped me like a sack of potatoes when i needed them the most. in oct 2023 (1.5 years in) i was forced to stop driving due to my sons medical issues. they could or would not offer me a remote position so that i could continue working for them. i filed for unemployment and they lied to the state and told them i was working for another company and even had the nerve to say i left the company for another offer even though they approved my FMLA. from this date forward i will post my experience EVERYWHERE possible so that furture driver steer clear from Swift. every time i saw a negative ad or comment about Swift, I stuck up for them but no more. they have shown that their blue and gold/yellow trademark colors rubbed together eqauls RED.

Avoid company name swiftexpresslogisticltc.com this is a scam deliver company

Swift cares more about "you got a drivecam" than they care about safety. Swift loves micromanaging drivers. They use junk equipment and find it more convenient to bully a driver than to fix their equipment. After you quit. Expect to get black balled. They will put really bad stuff on your record (it took me almost 2 months to find another job).

I went through the ringer, did all the preliminary crap, did all the paperwork, got the physical, did everything right, and the companys upper management decided to kill my application. And gave me no damn reason why. Absolutely none. I wanted to know why and the recruiter didn't tell me nothing.

All the recruiters I've tried to reach out to never answer their phones. What a waste of my time.

Con;
The recruiter will lie just to make sign in
(I gut promises with 3k sign on never so dime until I quit)
poor planing you will wait for your load 3+ hours (and the only pay for mileage and stops )
so you will waste 3 hours and more for free.
They really don’t care about the drivers.
The worst pay in the industry.
Pro
They will hire you without experience.
If you are lucky you will get good mentor ( my mentor was the only good thing happen to me with swift ).

They gave me a chance not many would in the World of making a real income. A independent life and the freedom all should have. Sorry my health let you down. I have a new life but still struggle. Thanks for the magic of hope, freedom and your patience with me.

When I first spoke with my recruiter, I was a bit leery. Honestly I was calling around trying to save money which I've ran short of. Reading reviews, etc. But.....
Like the old saying goes, "you get what you pay for."
In my case, I've borrowed to hang in there with Swift, and the more I deal with Brandon the more confidence I feel with Swift.
We'll be in contact!
Thanks a lot Brandon, you're helping me make the change I've needed for many years!
